Would someone help me, edit the villager male so he is sitting. He shall only have one animation. He shall sit and move. Like a stand animation.

-Thanks

Surely you can do that your self, it's not that hard.

first you export a chair model, then a villager, then you merge the villager in to the chair and then the only thing you have to do is bending the legs a bit etc. then you have yuo sitting villager.

I dont know how to do! I had tryed in gmax, but I gave up. I can only do basic stuff in gmax.

No no no, Don't use gmax use oinklerwinker's It is awsome. I am a noob and i can do that. www.oinkerwinle.com, I could do that for you if you want, or i'll try and post the results also do you want all of the guys to have a model of them sitting in chairs for like a cinimatic? Another thing is, were did you get the cool wooden floors from :D i've been trying to get those for a while lol.

eh, yeah that's what I meant, modeling with Oinkerwinkle tools

these are the programs you need for a sitting villager
Vertex Modifier
File Converter
Wc3 Viewer2
Geoset Merger
Notepad or Wordpad

not all of these are oinkerwinkle tools, some can be found on this site.

Yeah I have all these tool, but im dont know how to edit the model and add a sitting animation to the unit..

The only issue I can see with geomerging is that you lose your animations for the villager.
#8
Which really wouldn't look that good. You can probably do it in gmax, just play around.

Problem came into play is that as rao dao zao said it was messing with the animations, when i put the thing into the map it showed the villager sitting in mid air but no chair because he had anims and the chair didn't (dunno why) so someone that is good with anim stuff would have to either take them out or go into note pad and make new set of anims including the chair. at least i think that this is the problem but As is said there is a villager model but you have to change the pathing of the chair to like 0 or something so you can over lap them and it gives the appearance that he is sitting in a chair. I'll edit with a picture in a little while. I'll keep playing around and seeing if i can get a better model with both the vilager and the chair but right now i only have the villager sitting so you have to change the pathing textures.
